History of Atlas Truck Shows
From BRAVO to Stars of the Stripes
In March 2024, Atlas celebrated our first trucks show in connection with the PVO/Operations Meeting in Dallas, TX at Globe Life Field, home of the Texas Rangers MLB. In the early hours of the morning, before sun rose and the PVO/Ops meeting began, Atlas PVOs started to arrive in caravans of tractor-trailers lit up from nose to tail. Rigs were arranged in one of the many lots near the ballpark, and after the meeting concluded all in attendance made their way to the BRAVO Truck Show.
This first truck show was a celebration of the dedication and hard work of our Professional Van Operators. This event was a testament to their excellence in professionalism and customer service.
The BRAVO Truck Show was not just about recognizing the service of our PVOs but also about honoring their incredible trucks. The array of awards presented at the show highlighted the exceptional standards our PVOs uphold.
In 2025 we brought the truck show home to Atlas World Headquarters in Evansville, IN, and expanded on the branding of what was quickly growing to an event that was here to stay. Enter the Stars of the Stripes Truck Show & Social, directly recognizing the Atlas PVOs and their rigs as the stars of both the great American roadways and the moving industry altogether. The addition of the Friday Night Truck Lights pre-show event also introduced a visually stunning social event to set time aside for PVOs, Agents, and Atlas HQ employees to connect before the main event on the following day.
